In this conversation, we continue our discussion about how to read scientific papers—no PhD required. We break down how to spot red flags like flashy headlines, suspicious journals, and undisclosed conflicts of interest. You’ll learn what “peer-reviewed” actually means, how to tell if a journal is reputable, and why the number of times a study is cited matters. We also explain when an older study is still trustworthy and how to tell if an author might be biased. This episode is your shortcut to understanding which studies to take seriously and which to skip.
